Role of Compressed Air in Composite Tooling
Benefits of ELGi compressed air solutions
An air audit, performed in collaboration with ALT Trykluft, led to the customization of three EG Series compressors to streamline Dencam’s energy usage and enhance operational efficiency. Key benefits include:
The successful integration of ELGi compressors at Dencam Composite underscores the value of advanced, reliable air equipment for modern production in Europe. This partnership reflects a commitment to excellence, innovation, and continuous improvement in manufacturing.
"At ELGi, we understand the importance of energy efficiency for our customers. The in-built ELGi VFD (Variable Frequency Drive) matches compressor output with demand by varying the motor speed, which reduces the power consumption in line with the demand reduction. Compared to a compressor without a VFD, an EG Series with variable speed over a ten-year operating period can have a 34 percent reduction in energy costs." - Tord Sandberg, Regional Manager, ELGi Nordics.
